Wondering what everyone thinks about possum wrasse with Berghia nudibranchs…will it be a problem? I hate it when one expensive creature I buy eats another expensive creature I buy.

It's still a wrasse, so it definitely has its risks. Every fish is different, so it's possible if your wrasse is well fed that it won't be a problem. Also, berghia nudibranchs are nocturnal, so while the wrasse is awake the nudibranchs are tucked into a rock, and while the wrasse is asleep the nudibranchs are out and about.

It will eat them but those nudis are good at hiding. They still survive in my tank with a coppeband and a malinarus wrasse that love to eat them when they find them. Nearly all my aptasia are almost gone after months of the nudis and copperband going after them.
